    METHOD

    Bring the potatoes to a boil in a pot with plenty of water and salt. Boil for 15 minutes on medium heat, then remove from the heat and drain the water. Return the pot to the still-hot burner, cover with a lid, and steam for 5 minutes, shaking the pot frequently.

    Cut the potatoes in half and thread them onto soaked bamboo skewers, alternating each potato half with a pepper. Brush the skewers with oil and sear them for 2 to 3 minutes on each side over direct heat, then finish cooking them for another 7 minutes on each side over indirect heat.

    Cut the lemon into wedges and caramelize them for 3 to 4 minutes on each side over direct heat.

    With the gazpacho-mojo and lemon wedges, serve the skewers.
    RECIPE NOTES

    To make Spanish-style “wrinkled potatoes,” add enough salt to the water so that a single potato does not sink to the bottom of the pot (about 14 cup/75 g per quart/litre).
